I was born in Chicago, IL. I studied art and design at the Art Institute of Chicago and the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I am a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, B.A., the University of Chicago, M.A. and the University of Michigan, Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning, M.U.P..

I am a painter, a minimalist. I am endlessly fascinated by the power and eloquence of lines. My work is in public and private collections and I exhibit in national and international venues.
